The airlines do fine; they sell miles/points to banks who actually have money. Almost all US carriers are worth little or negative but their rewards programs have large valuations.
If you pay your bills in full and don’t pay interest you are beating the system, and it is “OMG free flights”/hotels/cash. You do give away tons of purchase info but you’re giving that away anyway unless you’re using cash.


I haven’t paid for a plane ticket since 2012. Made a huge hobby of credit card churning. Probably flew 200k miles on them. Otherwise I’d be skiplagging as the next best option.
That is fucking crazy
Independence Day.


Fascinating rabbit hole, thanks!


I don’t know metal would be the material of choice given the context, but point taken.


Yeah, looks like probably the app for privacy.com, the website was mentioned above. Thanks!

Indeed recently made it so you can no longer store your resume to attach easily to applications; it was too useful.

We definitely need a new horse in the race other than indeed and LinkedIn.


What the fuck is happening to WinCo’s bulk food prices though? Ive bought there for decades and it’s now more expensive per pound than boxed Quaker oats(General Mills) granola sold in the same store, WinCo!?!
I almost lost my shit last month trying to reconcile how it could happen. Is WinCo doing target enshittification? Is GM reducing gouging?
I’ve also noticed yogurt pricing is not competitive some times with grocery outlet.


But they have to be white and preferably male.
Every industrialized country is freaking out about birthrates–some going on 20 years–and the US under Trump has thrown away the single largest economic advantage it had.


Yeah, but she was great in ”Up!”
Laoka films are always so good. Looking forward to this.


How do you do masked cards where you can control the regular charge amount? Is that a particular bank’s feature or?


Olympics are all that I can think of
“and it looks like it was a .357 magnum bullet, interesting markings on the shells, appear they may have been sourced from a European supplier.”
